Environmental conditions  Temperature from 10 to 40°C

GAS MIXING SYSTEM

It has the function to regulate the capacity and the concentration of gas mixture
(Air, O2, N2O) as well as to deliver it to the anaesthetic gas vaporizer.
It allows to select the mixture to be delivered (Air - O2, or N2O - O2) and the O2
enrichment for delivered mixture in case of emergency.
The anaesthesia module includes a device which guarantees a minimum
concentration of 25% oxygen in all conditions (MIX-LIFE device).

The three pressure gauges on the front panel allow the continuous control of
medical gas feeding pressure coming from the gas pipelines system.

Safety devices AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATION OF HYPOXIC MIXTURES MIX-LIFE: it
always guarantees a minimum concentration of 25 % oxygen on mixtures which
includes nitrous oxide.

IN CASE OF LACK OR LOW OXYGEN PRESSURE CUT-OFF: audible alarm

with immediate cut-off of nitrous oxide delivery.

AGAINST OVERPRESSURE IN FLOWMETER BOX : safety valve calibrated at

0.8 bar for the protection of the glass rotameters.

IN CASE OF LACK OR COMPRESSED AIR LOW PRESSURE : all the devices

(gas feeding) supplied by compressed air are automatically supplied by oxygen.

AGAINST THE SIMULTANEOUS DELIVERY OF AIR AND N2O : selection by

membrane key on the flowmeter front panel.

Control for activation of Setting of MANUAL modality on ventilator (MAN) with automatic deviation of
exit of fresh gas for fresh gas to the manual system of anaesthesia unit valves group, or to a TO-
manual ventilations. AND-FRO circuit with visual indicator.

O2 emergency by-pass By apposite membrane key on the front shelf, max flow 35 L/min.

IN gas sockets on gas  No. 3 sockets for distribution system (O2 - N2O - AIR)
supply group
 No. 2 sockets for cylinder (O2 - N2O)

OUT gas sockets on gas  No. 1 sockets for O2

supply group
 No. 1 sockets O2 - AIR for active scavenger feeding

 No. 1 fresh gas connector for external use for ex. TO AND FRO (selectable
by apposite membrane keyboard on the front shelf - AUX).

BREATHING SYSTEM

Compact system with automatic connections, easy dismountable and

autoclavable

It allows the ventilation in modality: real open circuit, semi-closed circuit, closed
circuit at low flows.

The system also allows the spontaneous and manual ventilation in case of
anaesthesia unit breakdown or machine off.

Top special CO2 absorber canister of 1 Kg with rapid connection: this allows
canister replacement also during interventions (the canister is autoclavable and
reusable).

The recycling system is a selective type, hence the soda lime and fresh gas
consumption are reduced to the minimum.

The heated valves group reduces the condensation and heats the fresh gas.

The transition from one ventilation modality to another is completely controlled by

the ventilator without any user’s action on valves group.
